had been thc bone of contention between the european powers having now been pretty well defined a new field for territorial aggrandizement and colonial expan sion must therefore be sought china long known as the sick man of the par east naturally affords such a field for the satisfaction of euro pean ambitions america notwithstanding her traditional seclusive pol icy in international politics is however by no means disinterested in it although in a way somewhat different from that of the other countries in the first place the passing of the philippine islands into ameri can control makes the united states one of the nearest neighbors of china and it is therefore impossible for her to shut her eyes to the state of things in that country in the second place china is a great market for american goods and if america intends to extend her com mercial and industrial activity to other parts of the world china is the first country that she must turn to hence the so-called far eastern question is of peculiar importance to that country manchu government called corrupt in order to arrive at a satisfactory solution of the whole question we must find out the root of all these difficulties the most superficial knowledge of asiatic affairs will convince any one that this lies in the weakness and corruptness of the manchu government which threatens by the very fact of its

had been thc bone of contention between the european powers having now been pretty well defined a new field for territorial aggrandizement and colonial expan sion must therefore be sought china long known as the sick man of the par east naturally affords such a field for the satisfaction of euro pean ambitions america notwithstanding her traditional seclusive pol icy in international politics is

united states one of the nearest neighbors of china and it is therefore impossible for her to shut her eyes to the state of things in that country in the second place china is a great market for american goods and if america intends to extend her com mercial and industrial activity to other parts of the world china is the first country that she must turn to hence the so-called far eastern
